While the GPI anchor is located in the cell membrane, the remaining portions of TNALP are extracellular.
- TNALP e.g., human TNALP (hTNALP)
- hTNALP human TNALP
- TNALP can be engineered to replace the first amino acid of the hydrophobic C-terminal sequence (an alanine) with a stop codon, thereby producing an engineered hTNALP that contains all amino acid residues of the native anchored form of TNALP and lacks the GPI membrane anchor.
- the position of the GPI membrane anchor will vary in different ALPs and can include, e.g., the last 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21 , 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 45, 50, or more amino acid residues on the C-terminus of the polypeptide.
- Recombinant sTNALP can include, e.g., amino acids 1 to 502 (18 to 502 when secreted), amino acids 1 to 501 (18 to 501 when secreted), amino acids 1 to 504 (18 to 504 when secreted), amino acids 1 to 505 (1 8-505 when secreted), or amino acids 1 to 502.

- the N-terminal signal peptide is present on the synthesized protein when it is synthesized, but cleaved from TNALP after translocation into the ER.
- the sALPs include both secreted (i.e., lacking the N-terminal signal) and non-secreted (i.e., having the N-terminal signal) forms thereof.

- Table 3 Characteristics of HPP patients prior to treatment with asfotase alfa. Dosage treatment groups (2.1 mg/kg/week and 3.5 mg/kg/week) were combined for all results.
- Asfotase alfa was administered via subcutaneous administration at an initial dose of 0.5 mg/kg/day (3.5 mg/kg/week), which was increased after 1 year to 1 mg/kg/day administered via subcutaneous administration once daily over 6 days (6 mg/kg/week).
- the dosage of asfotase alfa was maintained at 6 mg/kg/week for the remainder of the extension phase.
- 3 patients discontinued treatment with asfotase alfa due to injection site reactions (2 patients) and non-compliance with the treatment protocol (1 patient).
- Metrics used during the extension phase to assess treatment of HPP with asfotase alfa included: 1 ) changes in inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentrations in patient plasma samples to assess ALP activity; 2) Six Minute Walk Test (6MWT) values to assess walking ability; and 3) Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, 2nd Edition (BOT-2) scores to assess physical function.
- Example 2 Plasma inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentrations
- ALP activity in plasma samples of the HPP patients was assessed by quantifying the
- ALP substrates PPi and PLP concentrations of the ALP substrates PPi and PLP, as described in Whyte et al., 1 995 (J. Clin. Invest. 95(4): 1440-1445), hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- PPi and PLP concentrations in plasma samples from the control group and group treated with asfotase alfa were elevated at baseline from the normal range (Table 4).
- ALP activity values were relatively low (23.5 U/L for the control group and 1 8.0 U/L for the treatment group) compared to age- and gender-adjusted ALP activity values (40 U/L to 160 U/L).
- pyrophosphate (PPi) and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentrations prior to treatment with asfotase alfa were pyrophosphate (PPi) and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) concentrations prior to treatment with asfotase alfa.
- plasma PPi and PLP concentrations were combined for the treatment group and control group at each respective time point (6 month, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years of asfotase alfa treatment), since the control group received treatment with asfotase alfa after the initial phase of 6 months. Due to the 6 month offset in treatment with asfotase alfa of the control group, plasma PPi and PLP are not available for the control group patients at 4 years. Measurements of plasma PPi and PLP concentrations were combined for of all patients (treatment and control groups) at baseline (Fig. 2A).
- the median plasma PPi concentration was 5.26 ⁇ (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 2.15 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 8.2 ⁇ ), while the median plasma PLP concentration was 267.0 ng/ml (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 28.8 ng/ml; a maximum plasma PLP concentration of 1590.0 ng/ml).
- Plasma PPi concentrations decreased after 6 months of treatment with asfotase alfa, as indicated by a median change from baseline of -2.19 for patients treated with asfotase alfa compared to a change of -0.18 for the control group (Fig. 2B).
- plasma PLP concentrations decreased after 6 months of treatment with asfotase alfa, as indicated by a median change from baseline of -254.5 for patients treated with asfotase alfa compared to a change of -1 1 for the control group (Fig. 2B).
- the decrease in plasma PPi concentrations was sustained throughout the extension phase of treatment with asfotase alfa (Fig. 2C).
- the median plasma PPi concentration decreased to 3.39 ⁇ after 6 months of treatment with asfotase alfa (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 0.75 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 6.00 ⁇ ).
- the median PPi concentration was 3.94 ⁇ at 1 year (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 1 .62 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 6.82 ⁇ ); the median PPi concentration was 2.63 ⁇ at 2 years (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 0.85 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 10.90 ⁇ ); the median PPi concentration was 2.03 ⁇ at 3 years (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 1 .20 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 4.58 ⁇ ); and the median PPi concentration was 2.56 ⁇ at 4 years (minimum plasma PPi concentration of 1 .09 ⁇ ; maximum plasma PPi concentration of 3.47 ⁇ ).
- the decrease in plasma PLP concentrations was sustained throughout the extension phase of treatment with asfotase alfa (Fig. 2D).
- the median plasma PLP concentration was 39.9 ng/ml after 6 months of treatment with asfotase alfa (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 2.5 ng/ml;
- the median PLP concentration was 96.1 ng/ml at 1 year (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 6.3 ng/ml ; maximum plasma concentration of 367.0 ng/ml); the median PLP concentration was 21 .9 ng/ml at 2 years (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 2.7 ng/ml; maximum plasma PLP concentration of 192.0 ng/ml); the median PLP concentration was 14.1 ng/ml at 3 years (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 2.5 ng/ml; maximum plasma PLP concentration of 96.7 ng/ml); and the median PLP concentration was 12.5 ng/ml at 4 years (minimum plasma PLP concentration of 3.9 ng/ml; maximum plasma PLP concentration of 38.4 ng/ml).
- 6MWT values were combined for the treatment group and control group at each respective time point (6 month, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years of asfotase alfa treatment), since the control group received treatment with asfotase alfa after the initial phase of 6 months. Due to the 6 month offset in treatment with asfotase alfa of the control group, 6MWT values are not available for the control group patients at 4 years.
- the increase in the 6MWT value was sustained throughout treatment with asfotase alfa at 81 .9% of the predicted 6MWT value (minimum predicted 6MWT value of 23.9%; maximum predicted 6MWT value of 121 .3%) after 1 year; 90.3% of the predicted 6MWT value (minimum predicted 6MWT value of 63.3%; maximum predicted 6MWT value of 120.8%) after 2 years; 91 .8% of the predicted 6MWT value (minimum predicted 6MWT value of 64.7%; maximum predicted 6MWT value of 121 .6%) after 3 years; and 84.4% of the predicted 6MWT value (minimum predicted 6MWT value of 59.0%; maximum predicted 6MWT value of 96.7%) after 4 years.
- the 6MWT value of the patients having HPP treated with asfotase alfa improved from 76% of the predicted 6MWT value at baseline to 85% of the predicted 6MWT value, which is within the normal range of healthy subjects of the same age and height, by 6 months.
- BOT-2 tests to assess running speed and agility of the HPP patients included the 50 foot shuttle run, sideways steps over balance beam, and one and two legged side hops (Fig. 4A).
- BOT-2 tests to assess strength of the HPP patients included sit-ups, v-ups, standing long jump, wall sit, and push-ups (Fig. 4B).
- BOT-2 speed and agility total scores and BOT-2 strength total scores were then determined from the sum of points awarded per BOT-2 tests for each time interval (baseline, 6 months, 1 year, 2 year, 3 years, and 4 years).
- BOT-2 scores after baseline BOT-2 scores were combined for the treatment group and control group at each respective time point (6 month, 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years of asfotase alfa treatment), since the control group received treatment with asfotase alfa after the initial phase of 6 months. Due to the 6 month offset in treatment with asfotase alfa of the control group, BOT-2 scores are not available for the control group patients at 4 years.
- Table 5 Occurrence of injection site reactions in patients treated with asfotase alfa for 4 years.
- ISRs included 87 instances of erythema (58% of total patients); 59 instances of discoloration (37% of total patients); 20 instances of hematoma (37% of total patients); 23 instances of pain (32% of total patients); 8 instances of atrophy (26% of total patients); 20 instances of pruritus (26% of total patients); 34 instances of reactions (21 % of total patients); 12 instances of swelling (21 % of total patients); and 4 instances of induration (1 1 % of total patients).
